…and then there was poo…

Today may not have been my very best mommy moment.  It could have been my worst.  Really, I had it coming.  I am still not really sure what led me to believe my 34 month old precious Ella was ready to forego pull-ups at naptime.  I mean, we have had several weeks of dry pull-ups (mostly) and I really am tired of buying them…so I guess that was my very logical reasoning!  Ha!  Let me preface this story by saying we have a had a quite a few successful days of totally dry underwear after nap.  That is, until today.  Help me, Lord.

I heard the inevitable playing noises coming from Ella’s room and knew it was time for an intervention (too bad it wasn’t just the intervention I was expecting – this one could have warranted a mask and rubber gloves).   Poor, poor Ella (and mama)  diarrhea all over every available inch of floor space in her room, her folded bare duvet spread, and her already cleaned matlasse...oh, and lest I forget the bathroom floor and tub.  Regrettably today was not my best mothering moment…BUT HER DOOR WAS WIDE OPEN TO GO TO THE POTTY. 

On a good note, there was no poo on the bed. 

Progress.

I am thinking we will taking a break from panties at nap.  For everyone’s sake.  Now I am going to pray and ask my daughter for forgiveness…sigh…

Love,

Mama the maid

I mean, who can resist this precious thing anyway?
